I've looked all over for this problem, but I'm sure that someone will show me how bad my search skills are in the first reply. Smile

First things first:
Router Model
Netgear WNDR3700 v2
Firmware Version
DD-WRT v24-sp2 (06/08/12) std - build 19342

I was trying to preform a remote WOL via the command prompt (telnet), and was quite unsuccessful and I finally gave up. But before that I ran several commands that screwed something up because now when I forward port 8080 it floods my active IP connections from a plethora of IP's all to my WAN address.

I've created a spreadsheet with what my Active I connections look like after I enable that forwarding.

I've got a maximum of 4096 ports, and they all get used after about 30 seconds, the above is just a sample of it. It slows down everything and makes it difficult to make changes through the GUI.

I've cleared the device using all the methods here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Hard_reset_or_30/30/30

I've reflashed the factory settings and then go back to DD-WRT with no luck either. I'm sure there's a command I can undo, but I've been unable to find anything. Thanks in advance for any help.

Just a couple more notes of things I've tried recently.

If I add a source net to port 8080 then the problem stops, but I don't want to limit it to certain sources.

I tried changing the port from and to and only when the port from is 8080 there is a problem.

Hope some of this helps. Thanks again.
